Every Trade Protected
by Mandatory Escrow.
PlayerTradeHub holds every payment in secure escrow until the buyer confirms delivery. Sellers can't fake accounts. Buyers can't chargeback. Both sides are protected on every trade.
How Escrow Works — Step by Step
Buyer pays
Payment captured and locked in escrow — seller cannot access it yet.
Seller delivers
Seller provides account credentials or transfers items within the agreed window.
Buyer confirms
Buyer logs in, verifies the account matches the listing, confirms receipt.
Funds released
Escrow releases payment to seller instantly. Transaction complete.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does escrow work for game accounts?
When a buyer pays for a game account on PlayerTradeHub, the funds are held in a secure escrow account — not released to the seller yet. The seller then delivers the account credentials. Once the buyer confirms they have access and everything is correct, the funds are released to the seller. This protects both parties from fraud.
Is escrow mandatory on PlayerTradeHub?
Yes, escrow is mandatory on every single transaction on PlayerTradeHub. There are no peer-to-peer trades, no direct transfers. Every order goes through our escrow system — no exceptions.
What happens if the seller delivers the wrong account?
If the delivered account doesn't match the listing description, the buyer opens a dispute. Our team investigates within 24 hours. If the claim is valid, the seller must deliver the correct account or the funds are returned to the buyer. Sellers are penalized for fraudulent listings.
Can a seller get a chargeback after delivering an account?
No. Our escrow system prevents buyer chargebacks from harming sellers. Once the buyer's payment is secured in escrow and the account is delivered, the funds are locked. Even if the buyer later initiates a dispute with their bank, our escrow structure protects the seller's payout.
